What problem does it solve?
The test architect skill addresses the difficulty of manually crafting test strategies, generating appropriate tests, and ensuring sufficient coverage across code changes, which often slows down development and reduces code quality.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Strategic Test Planning: Analyzes changed files and scope to design effective test approaches.
- Automated Test Creation: Generates new test files or updates existing ones following project templates for components, hooks, endpoints, and more.
- Coverage Evaluation: Runs test suites, produces coverage reports, and highlights gaps.
- Use Case Example: When the orchestrator pipeline reaches the testing phase, the skill reads implementation files, creates targeted unit and integration tests, runs them, and reports coverage delta back to the verifier.
Quick Start
Ask the test architect to create tests for the changed files in the current sprint.
